Messi and the possibility of playing the Paris 2024 Olympic Games with Argentina

Lionel Messi is still the most popular player in the world even at 36 years old and playing in the United States Major League Soccer, the reality is that the Argentine is still one of the best in the world. Now, the possibility has arisen of Lionel Messi playing for Argentina in the 2024 Olympic games.

It should be noted that Lionel Messi already won the gold medal in Beijing 2008. However, he could add a second now. Faced with that possibility, Javier Mascherano commented in an interview: "Leo has the national team's doors open to do what he wants, it's reality."

I continue: "If in the case of qualifying he wants to go, he will be welcome. My relationship with him is a very great friendship and I would love to. First we have to qualify. Then, obviously, we are going to analyze the option of Leo coming. But there is no point in getting ahead of yourself, the reality is that you have to qualify first.”

Lionel Messi is on vacation for a few days, however, he will soon begin his tour of friendly matches in Asia, more specifically, in China. The Argentine will not have official matches with Inter Miami until next season, since they failed to qualify for the Major League Soccer playoffs.
